It is creation of Robert Lee Morris, and its launch date would be on September 2008. with suggested retail price $575.

The perfume was created in cooperation with perfumer Claude Dir of Givaudan, and is composed as a chypre-floral one. It consists of blue cypress, fennel and cardamom, the middle notes are made of pink peony, Florentine orris, crème brûlée and pimento berry, and the base includes patchouli and sandalwood.

The perfume Andy Warhol Lexington Avenue is available in two sizes: 50 ml and 100 ml. It will appear on the market next month, when Andy Warhol would have turned 80 years old.

I thought I had a bon bon of the Astor Place. I put it on and smelled candied fruit anise, some spice - I couldn't think what, and sandalwood. Later I thought, oh maybe a little patchouli as well. Of course, when I got to work and looked at the notes I was all shades of confused. I just realized what went wrong - I have Lexington Ave not Astor Place. Everything but the fruit. This is a happy scent. It reminds me of holiday candles. I think I prefer it for winter, but I don't think it needs to be worn in winter exclusively. The longevity was not impressive, but it was reasonable.I could smell it for about three and a half hours.

Today I was inspired by a dessert a friend made: Creme Brule with bits of course Black Volcanic Salt.

I enjoyed this scent because it does remind me of a cream brule (my favorite dessert). So using the sample I have, I decided to mix it with Bond No. 9: Coney Island (smells like margaritas to me).

The end result is you are left with the creaminess of this fragrance with hints of saltiness from Coney Island.

I am going to have to purschase a bottle of AW: Lexington Avenue because this combination was truly remarkable.

Forget Lolita Lempicka, Jean Paul Gaultier, and of course Angel Man. If you want something with a Gooooood/Sweet Smell go with this, bit pricy, but hey....... you live once!.

Love this Bond ! After sampling quite a few others of this house, i finally fell in love for this one. Its spicy, sweet, warm and has great lasting power. Its hard to get over here where i live, but i ordered a bottle in the US, really looking forward to wearing this beauty.

Bond No. 9 Fragrances have a way of seducing you. This one, the lastest to the Warhol Collection takes a different approach to the seduction.

First, you are welcomed with the scent of slightly sweet & spicy berry notes. You can smell some flowers near by but unable to locate them. Wondering "what is that amazing floral scent?"

After serveral hours, the dry down is introduced. Imagine yourself in a nice restaurant after a great meal, the waiter brings to you a creme brule. You can smell the sugar that has just been torched. The caramelized sugar notes leaves you wanting more.

Bond No. 9 does it again. They are truly worth the price. I have yet to be disappointed.
